Thumzup Media Corporation, linked to Donald Trump Jr., has raised $50 million to increase its Bitcoin and cryptocurrency holdings and expand into large-scale crypto mining.
The company said the funding came from a $10 per share offering completed on Tuesday.
Thumzup plans to use part of the funds to purchase cryptocurrency mining equipment and work with mining technology providers to speed up installation.
Thumzup entered the cryptocurrency sector in January, buying 19.1 Bitcoin (BTC) for the first time.
The company’s move follows other publicly traded firms that have added Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to their corporate balance sheets.
Donald Trump Jr.’s Stake in Thumzup and Crypto Expansion
Regulatory filings from early July showed that Donald Trump Jr. owns 350,000 shares in Thumzup, valued at about $3.3 million at the time.
His stake adds to his known involvement in cryptocurrency-related businesses.
In the same month, Thumzup said it would expand its crypto purchases to include Dogecoin (DOGE), Litecoin (LTC), Solana (SOL), XRP, Ether (ETH), and USDC. Its board approved holding up to $250 million worth of cryptocurrencies.
The company stated that the newly raised $50 million will be allocated to these crypto purchases and to building out its Bitcoin mining operations.
